    The restaurant was at about 1/2 capacity, not overly busy, but the staff was rushed to clear our table. I felt like we needed to get in and get out. The food was good, and the venue is lovely. It's a great place for parents to take their student attending the local college for a meal.

    We’ve been to Happy Hours and they are always on point. A bit disappointed with a sit down dinner for six this time. Tables service was slow and seemingly untrained. They took app plates and flatware before we were finished (food was on the plates). Brought entrees we had no flatware. We literally had our flatware replaced five times with just a bread basket, entrees, and dessert (note to servers: always bring extra dessert spoons for those who didn’t order dessert to share or sample others). Food was just okay. Short rib while tender, lacked any depth of flavor, chicken parm was just okay. REALLY miss the hash brown app, so we opted for the garlic potato dish which didn’t come close. Cocktails and Mocktails were good. The ambience is nice and holidays festive.

    Wonderful food and drinks… we were seated very close to our reservation time which was nice considering they were very busy… the atmosphere was lovely but it was quite noisy… the service, while very friendly was inconsistent and very delayed… 3:00 reservations and we didn’t leave till close to 6… one+ hour before apps arrived and 30 minutes wait after dinner was complete to get someone to provide our check… the food was amazing and the price is on par for the quality… we will chalk up the slow and at times absent service with the busy season and will try it again in a few months!

    Dinner was good, but really small portions for the price. My son ordered filet and received 4 individual slices of meat. Another pasta entree was maybe a spoonful or two and didn’t fill the entire bowl. Overflow from the bar caused people with drinks to stand next to our table while we were eating and they were just hanging out drinking. All in all, better restaurants around campus for dinner.

    Cocktails, Beer and Food very good. Kevin, our waiter was also very good. Be prepared for a loud dining experience though. Lots of screaming babies on a Saturday Night.

    Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the cocktails, beer, and food, as well as Kevin’s service. We do understand that our Saturday nights can get a bit lively, and we appreciate your patience with the noise. We hope to see you again soon for another great experience, perhaps during a quieter time! Thanks again for the feedback!

    This restaurant is a surprising little gem! We didn’t even realize it was on Villanova’s campus until we got close. Amazing atmosphere and friendly people that work there. Beautiful campus. The food was fantastic!! Highly recommend.
